Select all that apply. which of the following are characteristics of an in-text citation? a. immediately after the last page of the text b. immediately after the information or quotation to be documented c. enclosed in parentheses d. very brief e. complete information about a source f. gives the exact information as on the works-cited list

The correct answers are:
_________________________________________________________
b. immediately after the information or quotation to be documented ; 
_________________________________________________________
c. enclosed in parentheses;
_________________________________________________________
d. very brief .

Note:

Choice:  [A]:  "immediately after the last page of the text "— is INCORRECT.  This refers to the "Works Cited" section — { in MLA format }.
____________________________________________________________
Choice:   [E]:  "complete information about a source" — is INCORRECT.
To the contrary, "in-text citations" are: "very brief" — {refer one of the correct options — [D]:  "very brief" .}.  In fact, MLA format style —or any format style—cannot — and does not provide complete information about a source in any part of the the work.  This would, literally speaking, be impossible.  Also, for the most part, in many cases, this would be impractical, as well.  This would apply particularly  to "in-text citations".  Furthermore, the MLA format—and the many other scholarly formats —have provisions for the inclusions of more thorough information about sources used in a "Works Cited" [e.g. MLA format] or "Citations" or "References" or "Footnotes" or even "Annotated Bibliography".   Additionally, these provisions tend to provide sufficient information for the scholar/other reader to allow for to find/access/verify any credible sources (e.g. journals, books, other publications) — should anyone desire.

As such:
____________________________________________________________
Choice:  [F]:  "gives the exact information as on the works-cited list" — is INCORRECT.  Furthermore, the "in-text citations" provide easy reference for the reader to specific — and more detailed — description of the source in the "Works Cited" section at the back of the paper — with minimal distraction to the reader.
